Yep, there’s nothing like Mom’s cooking, especially in Lyon. Since the 2nd century B.C., Lyon has been dishing up homey cuisine to both travelers and locals. By the 18th century, bouchons run by Lyon’s Mothers were making their mark on the city’s cuisine. With a goal of not wasting anything, inferior meat cuts were elevated along with the bouchons’ reputation for producing refined yet hearty fare.
